It isn't, and you don't.  I find this part of your argument the strangest.
You require approval and a 50 word-biography in order for someone to post on
your talk page at Citizendium.  The ability to use a user talk page is
clearly a privilege which can be granted or can be taken away.

Your right to get your message out there stops at the point where you try to
use someone else's website to do so.
